felix,
What overall rifle weight, in pounds/ounces with no added lead or mercury weight in stock or elsewhere, did you end up with? When using ANY 12 gauge action for .500 NE conversion, I think it always best to NOT use the existing shotgun barrels for monoblock, but to make, from scratch (as explained in Ellis Brown's book) a new NON TAPERED monoblock for .500, enabling preferable outside barrel diameters, for needed balanced weight, as was reviewed in conversations above.

lack build stock
this with 10.5 pounds
in the tests was good result
the barrel diameter is equal to the merkel,but at 26 inches
